Isle of Raasay Single Malt | 700ML

It's the flagship single malt from the Isle of Raasay Distillery, the first legal distillery to operate on the eponymous island. Peated and unpeated Raasay spirits are individually matured in a combination of rye whiskey, chinkapin oak, and Bordeaux red wine casks, before being married together for this exceptional dram. Taking influence from the older styles of Hebridean single malts, this expression is lightly peated, with a fragrant balance of dark berries and delicate smoke – superb stuff from the young distillery.

Isle of Raasay Single Malt | 700ML Tasting Notes

Nose: Baked plums, red apples, and cherries lead to drying wood smoke with earthy vanilla and a hint of flint.

Palate: Pebbly minerality with crisp peat smoke, sweet, dark caramel, and biscuity malt. Creamy oak and peppery barley tangle beneath.

Finish: Just a subtle whiff of smoke on the finish, cushioned by salted nuts, chewy butterscotch, and sweet oak char.

Distillery Information

Situated on the isle of Raasay in the Inner Hebrides, the Isle of Raasay Distillery opened its doors in 2017, ready to start distilling its whisky and gin. The first release from the team was Isle of Raasay Gin, which was also the first legal spirit distilled on the island (though there is a long history of illicit distilling on Raasay going back centuries!). In 2021, Raasay's very first single malt Scotch whisky was released to the world, boasting a lightly peated style to it. Excitingly, the distillery has also got some cool plans for whiskies made using barley grown on the island too!
